9V DC to plus/minus 5V DC converter

circuit diagram of dual polarity 5 v from 9V

Presented here is a simple circuit “9V DC to plus/minus 5V DC converter” that can convert a 9V battery to plus/minus 5V DC supply using LM7805 and ICL 7660. The operational amplifier requires a dual polarity power supply (+Ve and -Ve) because it has to swing on the output i.e. it does not swing into action during the negative cycle of signal if the negative source is not given. Thus, for the proper operation, we need a dual polarity power supply. Circuit Description of 9V DC to plus/minus 5V DC converter While…
